Clarinet teachers and students will find a more open and flexible approach in Trinity's new syllabus. Candidates will be able to mix and match repertoire from the classical and jazz lists, and there's no longer an end-date to the syllabus; instead, the exam board will keep adding options without calling time on the old ones.
More options
There are now 12 repertoire options (up from 9) per grade in the books, featuring new commissions and spanning a range of genres. In addition to the traditional accompanied and unaccompanied options, players can choose to play duets with another clarinettist. Detailed notes by acclaimed clarinettist and educator Paul Harris offer a wider perspective on each piece, with tips on technique and expression.
